Psalm 63

This morning we read Psalm 63 over breakfast.

O God, you are my God,
earnestly I seek you;
my soul thirsts for you,
my body longs for you,
in a dry and weary land
where there is no water.

We often find ourselves caught up in reading the Psalms metaphorically, and forget that for many people around the world, these words are their literal cry to God. Today, we are trying to be mindful, and learn more about people world wide, crying out from poverty and from persecution.
